Default Played with a Ferrari 550 Maranello

Keep forgetting to post this.

Two days ago I was at North Shore Yamaha and as I was getting in my car saw a grey 550 pull out on to the Pac Hwy. No doubt it had come from Modena Motors down the road as was being test driven.

I fired up and charged after it. My car was overboosting at the time (like 20-odd PSI) so it's a bit ballistic. Pulled up behind at a set of lights. He was chatting to some guys in a van and when it went green he gunned it and lit up the tyres. I gunned it, got past the van and came up beside the Fezza. Should have seen his face. Next set of lights he was behind me, grinning from ear to ear and giving me the thumbs up. I recognised him as one of the mechs down at Modena.

I reckon he wasn't giving it all as it wasn't his car, but I bet he has a story to tell at Modena now.

It's normally blokes like that that do give it a bootfull isn't it?

Either way I'm sure your car would make the Ferrari work..

I had trouble deciphering what Aus' subtitle of "bah bownk" meant but then I remembered the 'megaphone'. Ahh weffriddles, one of life's greatest lessons.

Megaphone? Weffriddles? Lost me.

Any way, I wouldn't be winning tonight. Have developed a misfire.

Let's see, overboosting one day, misfiring the next. Hmmm.

Aus.. I hope you were under the speed limit cause we wouldnt want PoliceUnit to add you to the list of drivers under investigations!

Ps. I had a dance with a 550M....55M 1 ... S2k Bah Bownk. Though he did appreciate the gesture.
